Snow showers return Saturday, but drier and much warmer weather expected Sunday

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Happy Friday Utah! A few scattered flurries are still moving through the region this afternoon, but overall drier conditions are expected for now.

A quick-moving wave will move into the Beehive state late Friday night into Saturday, bringing another round of light snow showers. This system will not be as strong or impressive as our prior storm, but anything that does fall, should be in the form of snow. Highs on Saturday will be in the lower 40s north, and mid 50s south. The best chance for precipitation with this system will be some rain showers and some rumbles Friday evening and night in St. George, otherwise mainly a north and central event during the day Saturday.

We will be in between storm systems Sunday into Monday, but look for gusty south winds to return to the state. Highs on Sunday will be near 60, with highs in southern Utah climbing into the mid 60s.

Monday will feature increasing clouds with highs climbing into the low 60s along the Wasatch Front, with highs in the low 70 across southwest Utah.

The warmth and dryness will not last long, as our next storm system arrives on Tuesday bringing another big cooldown, and the chance for valley rain changing to snow into Tuesday night, along with rain showers returning to southern Utah.

Overall, the active and cooler pattern will continue through most of next week with another system possible late next week. Be sure to stay with your 4Warn Weather team for updates.
